Whilst it's in my head, and getting the W202, I bought back to good condition both inside and out... or at least usable and tidy.
My 5 Speed Auto, will let me change from Park, into Reverse without my foot on the brake? However it won't let me take the key out in anything but Park, so I know...
Hi All,
My W202 sport (2000) would not select into reverse this morning. The ESP/BAS light has come on. I had to call out a recovery truck via my insurance. The mechanic found the hidden switch to engage the selector and selected reverse to get out of the car parking space, I drove home...
Howdo all, I go to this each year and have decided to take the trusty Merc and show it in the 'one make only' section - this is the section where anyone can show their cars (non-concours/non-club).
It's the biggest one day classic car show event in the world and is well worth a look if you've...
My W208 has been parked up for almost 3 months. The battery went flat so I charged it up and took it out for a spin and to get it all warmed up.
I stopped and put it in Park. I was sat there with the engine still running for about 5 minutes then went to put it into Drive and it wouldnt budge...
The users on here might know of my problems with MB park royal, in particular how they failed to fix my squeaky brakes, I took my car to MB temple fortune and the reason my brakes have been making a squeaking noise since I bought it is because MB park royal sold me a car with non original...
Fustrating morning!
Started the car as normal this morning. Tried moving the gear lever from P to R but it would not move. Had the brake switch replaced a couple of months ago and everyhthing was fine. No warning lights have come on. Used the pen in the flap to override the gear lever so I...
Hi all, my Slk320 year 2000 is stuck in park. It has been stood for a while, roughly 6 weeks, & was working fine before then. I can stick a pen down the release hole to allow me to select drive etc & the car drives as normal with no warning lights etc. Would I be right in suspecting the brake...
Hey guys!
I have a W210 98, E300td and I am having issues with my parking sensors; when I turn them on, the last two red bars in the distance display light up with a beep and stay lit and the sensors don't work. Would some one know whats wrong?
And secondly the illumination in the head...
So, up my street are a number of driveways with dipped kerbs and folk who live in those houses of course park their cars in their drives. It's residents parking and on the street those areas to park are clearly marked by boxes with broken white lines.
But - some of the houses' owners have...
Well actually it was less of a standoff and more of a declaration of war.
Took the family to Clifton Park in Rotherham today. One small car park, pleasant day, and good play facilities meant that lots of people were trying to park.
I fairly quickly got to the end with no space, turned...
Hi guys - really really could do with some help here.

Our Finance Director runs a W211 E320CDI as his daily car. Fine choice, and very sensible as befits an accountant..
However, he does have some petrol running through his veins.. he brought his "weekend car" into work last Friday,, and very nice it is too.. :thumb:
A couple of pictures for your...
This car park has a reputation for people breaking windows and nicking stuff out of cars. It's what happened to me today. Car is now with MB Stratford. So stay away and don't ignore advice like what I did.
Nothing of note was in the car except for EUR change in a bag (£20 odd) and I think...
Just had a look at my vito foot park brake, it was right at the bottom, and not holding.
The auto P plaw was hard engaging so I have had a look.
Back end up and adjust the single nut on the cable, the peddle is better, checked it's not binding but it still does not hold well, you can move the...
